Since its creation in 2002, the Société Santé en français and its affiliated networks have supported over one hundred initiatives that have helped provide Francophones in minority communities with better access to quality health services.

- The supporting document “Forms and tool kit for the development and submission of projects” (November 30, 2009) will assist promoters in preparing their projects.
The deadline for submitting proposals to the Conseil communauté en santé du Manitoba is Monday, February 8, 2010 at 5:00 pm (EST). If possible, we would prefer to be advised of your intention to submit a proposal through a letter of intention by January 7, 2010.
The Conseil communauté en santé du Manitoba will play a key role in analysing and prioritizing the proposed projects, which will ensure these are closely aligned with community needs, the actions undertaken in the field, and the networks’ respective priorities.
